birdland odeon-Ag VS Perpetual Tech P1A/P3A/P3


hello everyone,
i have a question about the dac, i am looking for a dac for my mimik II cd player with a vt-52 tube amp, which one sounds better? since Birdland odeon-Ag and Perpetual Tech P1A/P3A/P3 are almost same price for used one.

thanks

I owned the Perpetual combination and was never really happy with it. I considered the Birdland until I heard the Chord Dac 64. No contest there but the Birdland did sound better to me than what I had in the P-mode. Upgrades are available I believe for the Perpetual's but mine had none.
thank you so much for your opinion, i was thinking about Chord too but just the price is too much for me to afford...
that's why i was thinking about birdland odeon-ag and Perpetual. or is there any nice DAC and upsampling which i can get with the price around USD 1000?

thanks again
Of all the DACS for sale on this site you may want to check out the
Electrocompaniet and the Conrad Johnson DA2b. A friend has one of
those and it sounds so musical. The Birdland is still a great choice in the
price range. The Musical fidelity A324 is also a look see unit.
I was totally unimpressed with the perpetural combination. Surprised they still are in production. I suggest a Bel Canto Dac2.
